Recognized
as the quintessential Irish-American band, Solas will bring Shamrock
City, a multimedia performance using original songs, music, photos and
narrative to the Irish Cultural and Heritage Center, 2133 W. Wisconsin Ave.,
Milwaukee, on Friday, March 21 at 7:30 p.m.

The
engrossing show taps into the rough-and-tumble story of one man’s immigrant
experience and mysterious death and was inspired by Solas front man Seamus
Eagan’s great-great uncle Michael Conway, who settled in Butte, Mont. Considered
one of the safest places for Irish immigrants in the early 1900’s, Conway was
drawn to Butte for the cooper mining as well as the illegal boxing rings.
